Here's to the Crazy Ones

There are a few lines in Steve Jobs' speech here that describe me. There are more that describe the core of people who I have worked with over the years whom I have the utmost of respect for, who are my heroes.

Recently, I've found myself gravitating from touchy-feely leadership type doctrine, towards more hands on and practical.

Steve gets touchy-feely. But here's the mistake that people make who think the touchy-feely part of Steve and Apple won't get it done in their organization. It also relates to those who do adopt it but can't make it happen. These aren't just pretty words framed on some corporate wall. Steve lived it. Apple lives it.
